Well they sure don't seem to mind their new customers.

It's funny though, lots of gamers bought Ryzen just because they thought they were supporting the "good" company.
AMD doesn't give a shit about them, as long as they make money.

Those are not AMD fans but mostly shitposters and idiots guided by them. I bet 90% of them dont run anything AMD or never planned to buy Vega.

>>62014995
That's not his issue.

Apparently the $499 MSRP for the Vega was actually bullshit. It included a rebate which is already running out, which means the effective MSRP is $599.

Reviewers weren't told about the rebate when they were given the cards to review, just that it had a $499 MSRP, so when they reviewed the cards they gave impressions based on it being sold at $499 not knowing that shortly after release the cards would be $100 more expensive as the rebate window closed.

>>62015063
The 580 is inflated due to mining. What I'm talking about is the actual theoretical price changing, not stores selling it for higher from supply and demand.

>>62014954

Yea, they just engaged in anti-competitive behavior to try and destroy their competitor and ruin the industry for everyone but its basically nothing compared to RTG's dishonest pricing on one product that may actually be the fault of partners. Yea, trying to monopolize the industry isn't so bad in comparison, oh but I'm getting heat from fans so I'll just say it's not MUCH better.

>>62014995

The MSRP was always $599. They gave out a 1 week deal for -$100 off to make it look like it was $499. Yes the inflation was the fault of miners but AMD purposely made a shitty move to appear cheaper for the hype and early period when its hard as fuck to even find one of these cards that was not part of a fucked up bundle with shit you dont need.

>>62015763
The rebates were to encourage retailers not to jack up the price beyond MSRP, which they immediately did as soon as they ended. They can't stop anyone from setting MSRPs into the fucking sky to get more sales off a high demand GPU.

The entire "moral outrage" over this is one of the most pathetic examples of nerd flailing I've ever seen.

>>62015763
AMD had two options.
1. No packs, no rebates and miners buy out everything
2. Packs and rebates, and miners only buy most of everything

This is the reality of the post-miner GPU market, where everyone wants to get their hands on this shit. Demand is up and supply isn't changing.

>hype the living shit out of what turns out to be a mediocre product
>basically lie about the real MSRP behind a secret launch rebate and stupid fucking bundles
>ship incredibly few cards

This is quite the fuckup and it's hilarious. I still want a 580 for muh Linux gaymen, though. Never thought I'd say that

>>62014954
Literally who?

At $499 miner would buy everything

At $599 miner still buy everything

AMD needs to sue the shit out of the fucking liar Gibbo using the UK's strong libel laws, and totally cut off his store from AMD products. That known liar is trying to take advantage of the swirling rumors to try and strong arm AMD into continuing to bribe e-tailers into selling at MSRP.

AMD then needs to cut off this rumor mongering YouTube moron from getting sampled ever again until he issue a public retraction and apology.

Yes, because having to bribe retailers not to profiteer by raising prices over MSRP like they do on all other highly in demand graphics cards means they would be taking a loss if they sold at MSRP.

Absolutely impeccable logic. Now go find another etailer to confirm Gibbo's lies on the record. I'm still waiting.

Lol. What is the actual msrp?

>>62016878
You fail economics.

Every card sold at MSRP is a loss when you could be selling the card for above MSRP.
AMD compensated retailers for that loss so some cards would actually be available at MSRP on launch day.

AMD+NVIDIA master race

>>62015873
Why not increase the supply?

>>62016931
Reviewers reviewd $450 FE cards but judged them by the $370 MSRP that wasn't going to be available for months.

Meanwhile AMD Vega actually had cards selling for MSRP on launch day.

>Every card sold at MSRP is a loss when you could be selling the card for above MSRP.
Retailers recieve cards from manufacturer below MSRP, retard. AMD decided to be a jew and set the MSRP to what comes from the manufacturer and give away limited rebates so the retailer get some profit while decieveing the press.

>>62016973
Because you can't just magic new production lines into existence. They take huge investment and take time before becoming operational.

What was Rajas biggest success since his return to AMD?

>>62016958
Polaris is arguably a huge success, since it is selling faster than supply can come in.

>>62016982
no they didn't. AMD has absolutely no way of influencing retail pricing. Even if they gave Vega cards away for free to retailers, they would be selling for the same price they are now.

This is what happens when you pull a bait and switch and don't control the distribution of a flagship product. This is the major reason why Nvidia produced huge stocks of the GTX 10 series and made them available at MSRP at launch. It was the wrangle in and put a noose around the necks of any retailer who dared charge above MSRP... you were competing directly against Nvidia on their website @MSRP.

Radeon group is not AMD imo. They fucked the launch and a huge aspect of the consumer base. They took it a step further and, instead of using resources to fix the incomplete drivers, used them to write custom ROMs for miners. The only two major uses of GPUs is for general purpose compute and gaming. Even though a sick demented fuck has found a way to siphon compute resource valuation/inflation into a fake ponzi scheme currency, Miners aren't a major use. When coin systems collapse, it is going to be a 2008 event for the companies who were dumb enough to align and support them.

People bought GTX 10 series cards without a blink of an eye.
Better drivers. Mature product. Better general purpose compute dev tools. Better performance. Less power. Less Heat.

https://twitter.com/nvidiageforce/status/895746289589039104?lang=en


The most appauling thing is that there still hasn't been a proper response from the Radeon group. R.I.P in my opinion. You gotta be real desperate, myopic, and stupid to stake the future of your business unit on a ponzi scheme while simultaneous marginalizing a loyal segment of your consumer base and while ignoring the general purpose compute community (the future of computing)

Kudos to reviewers calling Radeon out on their shit.
In reality, these guys aren't getting rich from product samples. They get rich by their views. It was only a matter of time before they wised up to this and stopped shilling.

>>62017035
How is Vega a success by any measure? It is a power hog of an archirecture, that has one or two use cases that justify it's power.

Navi won't solve any of these issues either.

Confirmed for not following GTX 1070/1080 release. It was literally a paper launch. Even after months you couldnt buy them near close to MSRP because they were always out of stock. Look at >>62016903 for example.

But it's OK when Nvidia does it.

>>62017078
Go read the whitepaper you absolute know nothing. There are core new uarch features that aren't even implemented in the gaming drivers yet, but they ARE implemented in the pro drivers, where Vega10 trades blows with full GP102.

Until RTG manages to get primitive shaders working in the gaming drivers, Vega will remain totally front end bottlenecked by only having a front end throughput of 4 triangles per clock prior to fixed function culling (i.e. primitive discard carried over from Polaris). In the pro drivers, where this already works, Vega is a beast at geometry bound workloads.

>>62017102

Power usage is not a concern for professional usage. Which is where Vega is good.

The architecture is fucking brilliant, actually, but RTG didn't have enough resources to hire enough driver monkeys to rewrite both their workstation and gaming driver stacks from the ground up fast enough. They prioritized the pro drivers, which are at least feature complete, but the gaming drivers are still pretty rough.

Incorrect idiot :
The GTX 1080 Founders Edition card, for its part, fits in to this picture at $699, a $100 premium. The story then is much the same for the GTX 1070. Its family MSRP is $379, which its Founders Edition counterpart is being sold for $449.

Also, Nvidia offered them on their website @detailed pricing to ensure retailers didn't pull the shit they just did. As such, prices stayed consistent for some time after launch. I have the receipts from 2016. I know exactly what happened. I held out for vega, they fucked up the launch, and I bought more GTX 10 series cards.

>>62017167
It's AMD's flagship feature called FineWine™

this.

>>62017194

>>62017121

>>62017199
This is not a FineWine situation. We are not talking about mere driver optimizations. Core uarch features discussed in whitepaper aren't implemented yet in the gaming drivers. We already know these features are implemented in the pro drivers and are in beta testing gaming drivers, so we know they actually exist and are coming.

>>62017153
Regardless of that the real feature of Vega is the HBCC and the terabyte memory which nvidia won't have in ten years.

Miners want headless cards so you snip the video out ports, cut the price in-line with that, and force them into such cards by locking down the video cards w/ secure boot and sign checking preventing mining ROms from being loaded. You then release Mining support for the cut cards. Nvidiia started down this path. Radeon allowed it to fuck their flagship and integrated it all into one.

>>62017144

The ship has sailed. They had their timeline and release dates and fuckin blew it. AMD is fine on the CPU side and will likely make good use of vega on the APU side and through sales to Apple/etc.

Major things are on the horizon and it will be a marriage of Nvida GPU/AMD CPU.

What is hard to understand this brainlet? . The highest end AIB went for $450 at launch :
https://camelcamelcamel.com/MSI-GTX-1070-GAMING-8G/product/B01GXOX3SW?context=search

Radeon said MSRP is x and said they'd sell the cards at that price.
This is much different than saying MSRP is x but were selling the cards at y in your media launch :

$449 FE
$449 AIB

See the flat 3 month price history and then the drop to $379?
BRAINLET(s)

This as opposed to stating MSRP and no other real world pricing then letting the card go for $100-200/$300 above that on launch day. I'm sorry, but you're an absolute idiot if you compare the two.

I hope that's true. I would want to get one before they fix it and everyone realises but the prices are bananas these days. Remember when "mid range" was considered like a couple hundred dollars? And anyway even if its stuck at parity with 1080 that's still pretty beastly. The real let down is the game industry who make nothing worthy of the performance and at this rate probably never really will on the whole. In fact they barely make anything. Even normalfags are starting to realise the game industry is in the middle of a soft crash.

Our initial launch quantities included standalone Radeon RX Vega 64 at SEP of $499, Radeon RX Vega 64 Black Packs at SEP of $599, and Radeon RX Vega 64 Aqua Packs at SEP of $699. We are working with our partners to restock all SKUs of Radeon RX Vega 64 including the standalone cards and Gamer Packs over the next few weeks, and you should expect quantities of Vega to start arriving in the coming days.

The bundles still have an MSRP of $599, so how can AMD raise the MSRP of the stand alone cards to $599 while still keeping an MSRP of $599 for the bundles? Oh right, Gibbo is a known liar.

Guys, AMD has production issues as they have to rely TSMC/etc while Intel still owns their foundries.

>>62018141
I hope you didn't wait™ for it considering you could have had a 1080 for the last 18 months and would still have the better card for the same money

>>62015063
580 is a $200 card tho

>>62018180
What the fuck did Intel have to do with gpus?

>>62017225

Yeah, they don't mind releasing broken products to consumers. Their software eco-system has always been dog shit, things may improve, they may not, you never know with AMD.

>>62018187
I don't really need it, but i felt like burning my paycheck for some reason. Currently using a rx 480, maybe I can sell this to some cryptofaggot.

>>62014954
He isn't wrong. Any one that pays 6-700 for a vega 64 is retarded when there are 1080tis to be had for 700.

>>62015063
>RX580 is sold for the same price.
Wrong. I can go into my local micro center and pock one up for under $350, and they had at least 6 in the display case yesterday.

And I may just do that if vega doesn't price drop soon.

>>62018391
you can get ryzen and rx 580 combo for pretty cheap

>>62017139

>>62018391
>I can go into my local micro center and pock one up for under $350,

For a card that was advertised with an MSRP of $200, that's pretty bad.

>>62015085
>It's funny though, lots of gamers bought Ryzen just because they thought they were supporting the "good" company.
It's even funner since these are some of amd's most devoted fans. They will be disipoined by the performance they get out f such an expensive card and mat even "switch teams" and buy nvidia in the future.

AMD'S marketing on this card may of done more damage than good in the long run. If they had not exadurated and had been honest about price and performance they may of sold fewer initial units, but their reputation would of been safe.

>>62018465
That's software, not hardware.

>>62015216
I think the big key here is that amD talks about SEP, not MSRP. The Suggested Etail Price (an acronym they Esentially made up) included the Etail rebate. That is how they weasel speak out of it.

And by keeping the number of $499 sku cards to a minimum they keep their average profit margin across all vega skus high.

>>62018487
It's everything.

>>62015873
Thing is I would be fine with packs if it was buy any amd ryzen cpu/mobo/freesync monit or + vega 64 get $ off. Instead they limit to high profit margin mobos, cpu x models, and a monitor that had a $200 price increase at immediately before the bundles released.

>>62018467
They've consistency downplayed the performance for several months because they probably realized the gaming drivers were going to be nowhere near ready.

>>62018508

Bullshit. Gibbo is a known liar who claimed Vega 64 had a hashrate of 70-100MH/s and no one else will go on the record and confirm that AMD has or is planning to increase the MSRP of the stand alone card SKUs.

How could AMD raise the MSRP of the Vega 64 stand alone SKU to $599 when they still have an MSRP of $599 for the bundle? That doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

>>62020031
>Sell GPU to retailers for $499 with $100 rebate(effectively $599)

you dumb niggers should take an economics class someday. Prices are set by supply and demand. AMD making deals with retailers to actually sell some cards at MSRP is a gesture to consumers.

Stop acting like GPUs normally sell for MSRP at launch. They rarely ever do.

>>62020289
>>62020278
Show dem proofs boys.

>>62020302
That is literally not the point and you haven't addressed the issue of AMDs "intoductory pricing" horseshit. Really though, it doesn't even matter. It's still worse than an 18 month old card (1080) that was the same $600 MSRP at its launch.

Does everyone forget that MSRP is just the suggested price? Retailers can charge whatever the fuck they want. Deal with it.

>>62020410
AMD fanboys REALLY care because they're supposed to be the price/performance king

>>62020410
Those retards imply that AMD sells those cards to retailers at MSRP. Top kekerion.

>>62020118
The overclocked guy also said Vega 64 has a 70-100MH/a hashrate. He is a known liar.

>>62020388
>1080
>$600 MSRP at its launch.
Nvidia sold it for $700. It took months before you could buy one for $600.

Now AMD sold some cars for MSRP at launch and people go mad when prices rise after launch as everyone expected they would.

>>62020206
You have no evidence that the MSRP of the bundle has increased at all, so how could the MSRP of the stand alone card be raised to the bundle MSRP? That doesn't make any sense!

>>62021330
>You realize that the Fury X really didn't improve all that much with drivers right?
The Fury X didn't ship on drivers that still had core uarch features still disabled in drivers. Fiji was well known to be bottlnecked by its front end which could only process four triangles per clock prior to fixed function culling in the rendering pipeline. Vega presently still has the same bottleneck because the uarch feature designed to overcome that bottleneck--primitive shaders--is still not enabled in the gaming drivers.

If you read the whitepaper you will see that RTG claims that primitive shaders can increase Vega's effective triangle throughput to 17 per clock before any fixed function culling kicks in. This, plus the addition of Polaris' much improved fixed function culling (primitive discard accelerator) and the introduction of a form of tile based rasterization means that Vega should finally be free of GCN's historical weaknesses in geometry throughput. Of course, you can't even see the full benefits of the other improvements while the card is still totally front end bottnelecked.

That's also why Vega 56 is 100% as fast as Vega 64 at the same clocks right now.

Hardware Unboxed compared an AIB factory overclocked 1070 to a reference stock Vega 56, his results are consistent with the results obtained by ComputerBase, which I posted above, and which show that even a reference Vega 56 clearly beats AIB factory OC'd 1070s when it's power limit is raised.

Everyone knows blower style reference cards excessively throttle compared to AIB cards, so ComputerBase did the honest thing by turning up Vega 56's power target to approximate factory AIB card performance.

>$100 more expensive

No one is defending it, I'm merely pointing out that even with the garbage tier launch drivers Vega 56 was benchmarked on, it was still faster than a 1070. With drivers that actually have all the uarch features enabled, reference Vega 56 will utterly dumpster the 1070.

>>62024843
No. AMD just hasn't flat-out said they're NOT increasing the price, so everyone is taking that one Brit-bong e-taler's rumor and burning AMD with it.

The prices will go up regardless of what AMD does. HBM2 is expensive and their cards sold out within minutes. Faggots just need to stop crying about price hikes when supply can't keep up.

>>62017194
I think you're forgetting that not a single non-FE card was being sold at MSRP because retailers and custom cards saw that they could sell their card for $80 to $100 more and people would still eat that shit up. The prices stayed consistent because there was more supply and the prices had already been jacked up the moment they hit stores.

Did nobody think that suddenly raising the price wouldn't start a shitstorm? Was this planned? Was it the result of incompetence?

tl;dr: (from Linus's video)
- Radeon gave them the cards at 6am on Friday. And the launch was on Monday. So they had to work their ass off to push reviews by the deadline. That means you had to finish up at Sunday by noon to get your render started.

- Radeon said the price is X. At that price, it was a solid choice. So reviewers made vids and reviews recommending the card for it's price and performance ratio. That was really the only thing the card had.
Then the review is out and AMD decides to fuck everyone over with a "lol thats not even the real price" move.

This is why they are/were angry. Like it or not, these people have a lot of influence on buyers. And AMD really fucked up big fucking time with this move. At least graphics wise that is.

You idiots are the ones who love to brag about every fucking thing and love spouting shill. You are the ones always false flagging and creating flame wars with bait threads. You are the cancer that needs to be removed from the site.

Pretty much.

When are these threads going to be banned

as much as i love Zen making Intel's CPUs look like they were made by indian street shit, AMD's graphics department has handled Vega in a Bulldozer tier of launch.

AMD literally run by apooinloo yet amdfags are always the first to try to call someone else designated.

>>62029316
Because they literally can't say they're not increasing the price. It's ultimately up to retailers to price gouge for whatever they can get. AMD has no control over that side. They could say MSRP isn't changing, but then people will cry about the early rebate expiring when the rebate, if it exists, probably was only created to incentivise retailer to sell the card at MSRP on launch day.

Everyone is fucking retarded if they think this is actually a bait n switch. It's just retailers being greedy that they can't make 30% on AMD cards when selling at MSRP.

this guy is a sczhizophrenic hypocrite that would even turn Terry into a normal person by comparison

No shit. What fucking retailer would settle for selling at MSRP if they knew they could still move all their inventory with a huge markup?

Did you miss the part where he drilled through the traces on a motherboard?

I am glad that I wasn't planning on getting a Vega, tho

broken... 56 when undervolt overclocked pulls 20 watts more then a 1070 and beats out a 1080... how is this a failure?

Think about this thread for a second. Think how autistic and stupid one man has to be to throw a tantrum because somebody on the internet besmirches his favourite company. Think how fucking mentally challenged you have to be to suddenly go 20 years backwards and post insults that a 7 year old would be ashamed of. Take your pills and stop showing off your asberger to anyone who disagrees with you.

DELET.

I bought the gigabyte 1070 for $380 (there were 3 models at $380 at that time)
About a month later it changed to $400
MSRP remained $380, the shitty half size 1070 remained $380, you can buy a brand new 1070 for $380

>>62017095
I bought a 1070 within a week of aftermarket release, for $379, dual fans

>>62017324
The asus blower 1070 has pretty much stayed $380 since day one

>>62020484
FE has been $650 since day one
Aftermarket has been $600
I know because I tried to buy one on day one

>>62020760
I bought gigabyte 1070 windforce OC 8GB a week after aftermarket cards came out from newegg for $380
There were only 3 cards that released at $380 and they happened to remain at $380

>>62021566
Wow palit needs to get their shit together, my 1070 averages 90fps with these same settings

>>62026165
The gigabyte windforce, gigabyte half size, and asus blower has been $380 since the start

>>62041194
Oh, your 1070 is faster than the overclocked 1080 in that comparison then? Sure thing!
